Q: If a person that does buying for a shop (he is not the owner) he guides his children buy this and this for the shop and you add some profit for yourselves and then I will buy it from you for the shop (the children use their own money and then sell it to the shop and they increase the price to make a profit).

Q: My father is the buyer in the shop  

3 reps come:

Rep A offers R 2.00

Rep B offers R3.00

Rep C offers R3.50

Can my father accepts rep A offer although it is his son. In the shop my parents told me 90- 98 % of the time they do not send people to go and buy. They get their goods from reps who deliver. So by selling to them I am the cheapest rep (where I buy from is cheaper, they know of this place, but they do not buy in that manner 90-98% of the time). So now what I am doing is it permissible?

Q: I had the following dream. I was reading Salaat behind an Imam. The Imam started reading something extra in the salaat I did not follow him and waited for salaat to finish. When salaat was completed some people were poking me and wanted to shoot me with a gun. However the gun did not fire instead it was getting jammed. Then I am telling the Imam hold faast on to the Quraan and Sunnah I repeated this many times to him. Further I mentioned to the Imam hold on to the Quraan and Sunnah and do not add anything extra and you will not go wrong. After that the Imam put his round me telling everybody not to harm me for I am his freind. Mufti Saheb because I stay very close to Sparks Road Masjid I at times read my Salaat there.

س: كثير من المسلمين عندما يشتغلون بالذكر (في حالة الجلوس) يتحركون برؤوسهم و صدورهم يمنةً و يسرةً أو أماماً و خلفاً؛ و في كثير من الأحوال يقع ذلك بغير العمد، كأنه وقع لازماً. هل هذا جائز لا بأس به، عندما الشخص لا يقصد به التشبه باليهود؟لماذا أسأل - لأن رأيت في التلفاز أن اليهود عندما يقومون بقراءة التوراة أو غيرها من أمور دينهم، فهم أيضاً يتحركون بأبدانهم أماماً و خلفاً و لكن في حالة القيام. و كثير من المسلمين عندما يقرؤون القرآن أيضاً يتحركون برؤوسهم و صدورهم أماماً و خلفاً بغير قصد التشبه باليهود. أراه جائزاً و لكن أريد الفتوى في ذلك لإطمئنان القلب.
